Multiple roads near me which are essentially unusable if you're in a wheelchair or have a pram. It's genuinely outrageous. I wish we had a real war against motorists.

This makes me so mad. I see it all the time where I live and although it doesn't affect me personally, I wish I could do something about it. It's ignorance, laziness, selfishness...

The far right aren’t bothered about the finer points of asylum rules they simply want NO people of colour to be in their field of vision at any time, and Shabana that means you. Trying to capitulate like this achieves NOTHING other than contributing more to the climate of hate.

One day my son will watch Reeves and Mortimer and will realise that the humour I've been passing off as my own is completely stolen.

I've worked out why I have a fundamental dislike of anything like trading/stocks/shares/investing.

If you're making money without producing anything, someone somewhere is losing out and it's always someone poorer than you.

Bastard storm has done something to the roof and we've got a leak in the bathroom. We had the roof replaced at great expense this year but the bit that is leaking is separate and didn't seem to need doing. 😡

It's almost like when you tax the rich in a place you get to make that place a better place and even the rich just looking out the windows of their limos at most of that place in passing prefer to think "oh, that looks nice" rather than "I must prepare my bunker for the impending apocalypse"
NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.

And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

I remember just last year that every day in every way, the media took time to inform me that Joe Biden Is Old.

But now that they've been handed the biggest scandal in living memory, the granddaddy of them all, the HOLY SHIT THEY WERE FUCKING CHILDREN scandal?

On this Epstein stuff, just a reminder that multiple contestants in the Miss Teen USA pageant - to repeat, TEENAGERS - said that when Trump owned it, he would walk into the dressing room so he could watch them changing clothes

Labour are doing things differently in government.

They're scapegoating migrants like Reform.

They're doing austerity like the Tories.

They're supporting genocide like Trump.

They're picking all the worst politics and mixing it all into a foul pot of shite.

@alicettimes.bsky.social I'm a 47 year old Green Party member and I learned when I WAS a "kid" not to take any notice of the Murdoch press. More recently I worked out that most of the mainstream media are wealthy, out-of-touch people like you: all just out to protect your position in society. GTF.

I can assure you it's neither message nor messaging, nor how it's told. It's the fact you're a bunch of rabid genocidal Tories catering to the every whim of the ruling class that's the big fucking problem.

Gary Neville won 18 trophies including 8 Premier Leagues. Had 148 clean sheets. Captained United over six successful years. Got 35 assists from full back. Ferguson didn't consider replacing him until he was ready to retire. What a player.
